A Few New Tracks From SPEAK!

SPEAK! is one of my favorite artists at the moment, who's also one of the leading members in the Trillwave "movement". All three of these tracks are awesome. Two of the three tracks have features by frequent collaborators of his. The first is Like That (produced by Mid Town Pat) with SPACEGHOSTPURRP and the second is Dank with Vince Staples (produced by Syd from Odd Future). Then we have SPEAK! going solo on the third track, Promised Land, which is produced by Michael Uzowuru (formerly known as Afro Butterfly).

Also, if you're unaware, SPEAK! is apart of a new group made up of himself, Syd, Matt Martians, and Left Brain (not entirely sure if there's more members) called The Internet and as you can see in the above photo they're releasing their first video on Halloween. Here's links to the two tracks they've released so far: Love Song and They Say.

Inspired & The Sleep - "While We're Young"

Inspired & The Sleep is Max (AKA Eye Lid Kid) Greenhalgh's "revolving musical project", which consists of his solo work and band work with his fellow lifeguard coworkers. While We're Young is the first single to Max's solo debut, titled Teenagers, which he finished over the past summer. It's a fun little track (only 2 minutes and 27 seconds long) that seems to me as more of a teaser for what's to come from the LP. I also recommend checking out the band's EP, Kaleidoscope Years, which is on their Bandcamp along with Max's single.

Download/stream here

I'm not sure if they have a Twitter account, but you can check out their Facebook page for more info.

The Roots - "Make My"

Here's the first single from the Undun (in stores December 6th), which features the only guest artist on the album Big K.R.I.T. As usual, Black Thought delivers a great verse (I don't think he's ever spit a mediocre verse) and K.R.I.T. definitely holds his own. The production is just on another level (that bass line >). One of the few albums I'm really excited about for the end of 2011.



You can follow the members of the band on Twitter (Black Thought doesn't tweet and not sure if James Poyser has a Twitter) @questlove @kamalgray @FrankKnuckles @CaptainKDouglas @tubagoodingjr @markkelley.
